Aah the hubble deep field experiment, there's a thread on here somewhere posted a while back, it's not so incredible that focusing on a void yielded an array of light dots, it's incredible that those light dots are a blistering collection of galaxies in the invisible void of the discovered universe. Which yields to the inescapable conclusion that there's way more galaxies out there than the human mind has conceived to date.

it's hard to not get a headache trying to fathom the endless eternity of space. seeing those little dots, one after the other, pass by and realizing that those are entire galaxies just boggles my mind.

It is quite amazing to be honest......trying to put the whole thing into perspective

I wonder how many other ambient fiends are lurking around these other 100 billion galaxies

the human species is just one example of the universe contemplating itself. who knows how many more are out there, in whatever form it/they may take.

it is humbling... what we know now is just our interpretation of what is going on that we know of, everything is relative.

the light started 13 billion years ago . Its just too hard to think about. Your head explodes thinking how large it all is. Amazing stuff.
